While the aviation industry has grown phenomenally, there aren't enough air traffic controllers to handle the growing air traffic by an ATC official. The result is a high level of stress. Now there's a concern that the burnout could pose a serious threat to air passenger safety. In a mid-air spat a few days ago in Chennai, an air force pilot wanted the air traffic controller's clearance to climb to a higher altitude. But he was asked to shut up.
